Sorry No...

There is no chance of that...

This Full Exhaust System was Engineered to the under carriage of the new 2013 GS RWD....

i am hating on a6s right now ( in a positive way ) i am actually happy for him. he received a sic exhaust system. the GS exhaust video is the truth, the sound the exhaust makes is music. you stated that we would lose the sound resonator,,,,, who gives a rats ***, it sounds 100% better without it. pls post a price for the true dual exhaust /w installation. one problemo. i am in N.Y. and wouldn't trust anyone but your people to install this exhaust for me.

i have an AWD GS 350 F-Sport. would that pose a problem,, not being RWD.

Thanks for the kind words..!!!

The "Sound Creator" will be lost with the Intake Pipe replacement... Not the exhaust suystem..

Pricing is still TBA...
Also, being in Cali, not sure that we can quote you an install price.. We will ONLY manufacure it.

We still need to verify fitment of the Full System on the AWD models.. The front drive axle & transmission mount "might" interfere with our X-pipe.

Regards,

~ Joe Z

PLEASE keep me posted when you figure the fitment for the AWD if anyone can,,,, you can, if it's humanly possible. i would really love to have that EXHAUST SYSYEM. BTW, will it boost HP,,,, slightly? or will i need to do the intake also.

^^ We can't have this thread turn into a price discussion at this time..
But it will be very affordable.. Feel free to click on some of the links I posted in Post # 1

^^ Yes we will be looking at the tradtional approximate 10-12 Rwhp gains on the GS350 RWD application.. We have tons of data collected with the same Drivetrain from the IS platform.

We will keep you posted on our AWD findings... But it might be hard to get one on our lift here in Southern California...

Maybe someone with AWD can supply us with some under carriage pics ???

*If the AWD application doesn't pan out, we will have another version that will be released.
***More Details to be announced on that as well.

I've never really heard anyone say that before. Thank you.... (I think) Honestly, I'm a very lucky person to be able to work with Joe Z & be part of this project. I can say with the utmost confidence is that you will be very happy with this exhaust system.
